Thermodynamical description of heavy ion collisions

Nuclear Theory 2017-08-23 v1

Abstract

We analyze the thermodynamical state of nuclear matter in transport descriptions of heavy ion reactions. We determine thermodynamical variables from an analysis of local momentum space distributions and compare to blast model parameters from an analysis of fragment energy spectra. These descriptions are applied to spectator and fireball matter in semi-central and central Au+Au collisions at SIS-energies, respectively.
